Elias, where have you been all my life?!?…read more Good shawarma is hard to come by in the burbs so I had high hopes the first time I ordered from Elias. Let me tell you... You. Will. Not. Be. Disappointed! The food here is SO good and SO SO cheap! I love that I can get a full takeout container of shawarma plate for $9.99 plus delivery and tip! They pile on the meat and the sauces galore. Such flavorful tasty food with a nice side of salad/tomatoes/tabouli/pickled turnip to balance it out. I haven't been super impressed with the naan but that may be because it's better served fresh at the restaurant. Stick with the shawarma plate and you're gold. I eat here once a week, it's so damn tasty and the best shawarma in Whitby!

It is soooo tasty and flavourful and the portion size was great and the toppings were fresh (except the pickle it tasted super salty and texture was a bit weird). but otherwise, I am a fan! The beef kabob plate (2/5) on the other hand was a miss. The plate came with two kabobs and they were dry and slightly sour note? It just wasn't hitting the spot and wasn't juicy and tender or flavourful like I expected. The rice and salad were good though. I might give other items on the menu a try but decent spot for a neighbourhood bite if you order the right thing.

The Whitby location is much larger than the Ajax restaurant and has plenty of seating. The food is exactly the same and believe me consistency is key! We opted for one of our all-time favourites, the chicken breast salad but this time, I wanted to try the wrap as well. We were also generously given a hearty bowl of chicken barley soup which was soooo good (and much appreciated given the day was dark and drizzly). Maimana's dishes are next level. Clean, healthy eating and always delicious.

That hot sauce is so good I found myself slathering it on each bite.. the other sauce too.. the meat and veggies in the wrap work so well together too.. Chicken was good and the ground meat was good so I can't really say which is better.. ideally I'd just get both.. Easy place to recommend , especially in Whitby lol.. Can't wait to go back and try their dinner plates..

Barg Wrap (Steak) Shawarma Plate…read more We stopped in today and ordered take out for lunch, after a friend had recommended this place to us. We spoke with the hostess and she was an absolute sweetheart. We did not know they have been around since 2008! However, there is new ownership this last year. I must say there's a reason people are recommending the food. There is free parking in behind the restaurant. The interior is cozy and has tables for dining in. We opted for a wrap and a plate; splitting both. The plate was loaded with rice, garlic sauce, hummus and lots of chicken shawarma. Topped with another sauce, this was the perfect combo. The meat was juicy and flavorful. There were multiple dressings to choose from for the salad. The Barg wrap was a steak wrap and my hubby commented on how tender the meat was. The wrap was an ok size and was a nice mix of veggies. All in all we had a solid experience and will definitely be back to try more of their menu.

Oh dear. I'm afraid something has fallen off the rails at Cyrus. We haven't been here for a while…read moresince we're not in Oshawa often but it was my husband's birthday and he wanted chicken shawarma. I never order the shawarma but he swears it's the best he's ever had. I opted for their barg because it's always been fantastic. Not so much this time. The meat was so over-cooked that it was actually difficult or eat. The salad and rice were great but the meat was like boot leather. Apparently the shawarma tasted as good as it always has however, my when husband dug deep into the rice and put a big fork full into his mouth, he chomped down on a rather large piece of crumpled up aluminum foil. For the life of us, we can figure out where it came from since the food was in styrofoam containers and the only other thing we were given were plastic utensils and napkins. Although my husband thoroughly enjoyed his shawarma (sans foil), I was rather disappointed with my dish. I guess if there's a next time, I'll go for the shawarma too.

We were able to secure a booth near the side of the restaurant which didn't have any members of the team, which was large enough for the both of us. We then placed our order, which was the chicken kabob meal for my husband, and the butter chicken meal for myself. We then sat down, and waited about 10-12 minutes for the meal to arrive, which was perfect timing considering that there was a large team to serve while we were there. In the butter chicken meal, I was given a large container of butter chicken, along with pita bread, rice, and salad. I was impressed with how well everything tasted, as the chicken was tender, and the rice with the salad was abundant. I couldn't even eat all of the food, as there was too much of it! Overall, this place was definitely top-notch; excellent amount of food choices, great value, and nice service; would definitely come back if I am in the area again, and would highly-recommend to anyone that is looking for an authentic and delicious meal!
